Thanks so much for doing this. I really appreciate it. I have Luigi's birth act that is harder to read the script. I have not scanned this one in yet. If I send it through e-mail would it be possible to read this one too?

Hi Kim, sure!
As you know I help many people, and my large italian culture is the best option!

The year 1887 the day 18 of December month, to hours 4.00 P.M. and minutes-(zero), Federico Colas... Secretary delegated from the Major by act of 5 May 1882,.....(illegible) Official of Civil records in Civitella Casanova, is apparead Marrone Feliceantonio of age 30, farmer profession, domicilied in Veste... fraction (hamleth), that it declare me that in hours 4.00 A. M. of 14 (day) current month, in house in Torre della Vella district to number: without, and from Di Costanzo Carmela legitimate wife, farmer profession, with he inhabitant, it is born an child of male sex that he present to me(it is an burocracy phrase) and that he give the first name of Luigi.

To border:
act number 174
Luigi Marrone
With rectifying made in 28..1907 where it read "Feliciantonio first name of the father, it must read: Francescantonio, and where it read Di Costanzo Carmela, it must read: Di Costanzo Maria Carmela"
Teramo 12.. 1907

Quick question. It says on Luigi's birth act that he was born on December 18th. On his letter of intent for immigration and all his US records it says he was born on December 13th. So in the U.S. could this be human error on his birthday? Maybe mistaken a 3 for an 8??? What do you think?
